Best Answer

Yes Because the electro-negativity number of N is 3.0

- the electro-negativity number of H is 2.1

=.09

If two elements have an electro-negativity number between 0.5 and 2.1, it has a polar bond.

Another way is that N and H are both non-metal and they have an unequal share of electron so it is a polar covalent bond.

Is NH3 plar?

NH3 is the molecular formula for ammonia, and each N-H bond is polar, and the 3-D structure of the molecule makes the molecule polar. NH3 molecules will form hydrogen bonds with other molecules. Refer to the related links for an illustration of the ammonia molecule.


Is NH3 a non polar bond?

An NH3 molecule, also known as an ammonia molecule is polar. The molecule's polarity and its ability to form hydrogen bonds, makes ammonia mix very well with water.

BCl3 H2O NH3 and PCl3 which is non-polar?

BCl3 is non-polar. The B-Cl bonds are polar but the molecule is not. You should review shapes of molecules. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion, VSEPR. Applying VSEPR on BCl3, we can find out that the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Due to its geometry, the bonds cancel out.


What sigma bonds does NH3 contain?

I am guessing you mean how many. NH3 contains 3 sigma bonds. There is no other type of sigma bonds.
